Agriculture Study

2009 Agricultural Economic Impact Study

The purpose of this study is to provide a profile of agriculture in seven different districts in Northwestern Ontario along with an estimate of the economic impact of agriculture on the wider economy.  These seven districts include: Thunder Bay, Kenora, Rainy River, Cochrane, Temiskaming, Blue Sky, and Algoma/Manitoulin.  The reports include a description of the physical and human resources in the region, an overview of agricultural production in the district, and an estimate of the direct, indirect and induced economic impacts of agriculture in the regional economy.  The Study was conducted by Harry Cummings and Assosiates Inc.
